Finally, I was able to talk, mingle, and interview the GMA Telebabad Primetime actress Carla Abellana during our set visit in their hit teleserye "My Husband's Lover."
In the said teleserye, Carla is playing the character of Lally, the martyr and the loving wife and mother of two who has a bisexual husband.
In our talk, Carla willingly expressed her gratitude being part of today's controversial hit TV series. She even shared why she accepted the controversial role of Lally whom she considered as her most successful TV series project so far! I even put her situation in real life to the shoes of Lally - what if she has a gay husband in real life, what will she do?! Carla answered my tough question with humor and honestly!
Check out our photos together below:
Yeah, Carla is truly kind, friendly, and approachable in person! So great meeting her!
Now I already completed the three lead stars of "My Husband Lover" - Dennis Trillo, Tom Rodriquez, and Carla Abellana! Seems that I'm part of their complicated love story! LOL. (RCB)
Finally, I met in person the very famous "Lola Gets," the award-winning veteran actress Ms. Gina Pareño! Ms. Gina is now playing "Lolaine," the grandmother of Coco Martin in the hit Primetime superhero TV series "Juan Dela Cruz."
Actually, Ms. Gina reunited with Coco in the said teleserye. And this is now their third TV series together! They first worked together in the 2009 hit drama series "Tayong Dalawa" where Gina grabbed the title of "Lola Gets." Year after, they once more played the characters of grandma and grandson in another hit "Kung Tayo'y Magkakalayo." Now after three years, Coco and Ms. Gina reunited for this hit fantaserye.
Right after the celebrity advanced screening of "Juan Dela Cruz" in SM Megamall, I got an opportunity to talk with Ms. Gina. And here is our video clip:
Ms. Gina is really an ideal lola! Though they were only "mag-lola" onscreen, Gina really treats Coco as her real apo! Me too, I like Ms. Gina to be my lola! My lola already died 14 years ago. And yes, I'm also close with my grandma!
The character of Ms. Gina truly adds spice to "Juan Dela Cruz." She put humor to the show. Thumbs up Lola Gets! (RCB)
"Apoy Sa Dagat"is the newest Primetime TV series of ABS-CBN which stars Piolo Pascual, Diether Ocampo, Angelica Panganiban, and Angelica Panganiban!With its flaming hot title, I really thought at first that this will be a sexy teleserye. But after meeting the directors, writer, and creative staffs of the said TV series, my outlook to this teleserye eventually changed!
One Saturday afternoon, we had a Bloggers' Conference together with the Creative Team of "Apoy Sa Dagat." This was composed of the two directors FM Reyes and Nick Olanca, writer Arden Condez, and creative manager Henry Quintain.
My first question to the teleserye director FM Reyes was all about the title of the series. I got curious why this TV series was dubbed as such since it suggests a sexy name. Added to the fact, the series is led by three of the sexiest stars who showed skins in the trailer and poster giving me a hint that this is a Rated SPG TV show. But Direk FM explained why.
According to him, the title "Apoy Sa Dagat" is actually a figure of speech. It was derived from the figurative phrase "fire on water," two objects that can't never be together! In the story, this pertains to the lead characters continuously battling! The title also suggests facing stiff challenges - how the lead characters will face the challenges which were impossible to win!
"The story is not that sexy or daring everyone is thinking of. Yes, there are some sexy scenes in the first part of the series but as you will go along, you will see how it differs from the other teleserye," the director said.
It's good to note that Direk FM Reyes is also the man behind the successful and phenomenal hit TV series like "Lobo," "May Bukas Pa," "eBoy," and"Sana'y Wala Nang Wakas." And it's proud to know that "Lobo" and "Sana'y Wala Nang Wakas" were continuously hitting the other parts of the world as their rights were sold to other countries the way we did with the different Koreanovelas airing in the country.

The "Apoy Sa Dagat" Team!
A Sizzling Hot TV Series Poster of "Apoy Sa Dagat"
The teleserye writer Henry Quintain expressed how he admires Angelica Panganiban. "Nung una talaga ayaw na ayaw ko kay Angelica lalo na 'nung time na kontrabida siya ni Camille Prats. Kase big fan ako ni Camille then naging artist pa namin siya sa Marinella. But after ko siyang makatrabaho dito sa Apoy Sa Dagat, talagang bumilib ako sa batang ito! Wow, ang galing niya!" he shared.
Angelica is playing a dual role in the series. She is playing the poor and humble sea girl Serena at the same time playing the rich and the fighter Rebecca. "Hindi mo na kailangang ibahin ang itsura nung dalawang Angelica eh na 'ung isa is mahaba ang buhok at maiksi ung isa. Sa acting niya pa lang kitang-kita mo na ang pagkakaiba. Ganun siya kagaling," the writer and director agreed.
Aside from Angelica, the team also talked about the other characters in the series like the two leading men Piolo and Diether, the antagonist Angel Aquino, and the other veteran stars.
They were all laughing as they shared how cool the character of Ms. Perla Bautista in the story. "Kilala natin si Perla sa mga roles na martir na ina. Pero dito, pokpok ang role niya! Lipstick ang katapat ng kaligayahan niya," Direk FM revealed.
The creative team also unveiled how cruel the character of Angel Aquino. "Kung sa Magkaribal at Maria La Del Barrio naintindihan natin at minahal ang pagiging kontrabidaniya, dito sa Apoy Sa Dagat, grabe at magagalit talaga kayo at kasusuklaman niyo siya!" It's really evilness to the fullest Angel Aquino is in the series!
Here is the full trailer of "Apoy Sa Dagat:"
The series also explores the beauty of the Philippines. Yes, the scenes were also taken in the different tourist spots of the country.The team even narrated how they shoot in the cruise and in the mid of the sea.
"Apoy Sa Dagat" just premiered last Monday, February 11, 2013. And it truly got high pilot ratings beating its rival TV series! This week and in the next succeeding weeks, expect to see more exciting twists as the story progresses!
This is such another great teleserye from the home of breakthrough TV series, ABS-CBN! Once more, two thumbs up Kapamilya! (RCB)
It's Nice Meeting in Person the Famous Kontrabida 'Sally' of the Hit Soap "Sa Dulo ng Walang Hanggan!"
We loved and hated at the same time the different characters portrayed by the Star Magic actress Ms. Mylene Dizon. We loved her character as Susan David, the martyr, patient, hard-working, and protective mother of Mara (Kathryn Bernardo) in the hit TV series remake "Mara Clara" in 2010 then hated her being the greedy and ambitious Dra. Grace Maniago of the advocacy-series "Budoy." But in real life, this actress is truly admirable!
I started to admire Mylene when she portrayed the character of 'Sally,' the remarkable and the legendary kontrabida of Claudine Barretto in the hit teleserye "Sa Dulo sa Walang Hanggan" way back in 2001. Yes, I got hooked with the said series not only because of Claudine but also because of Mylene. I love the catfight and the killer lines between the two actresses in every exciting scene. And yes, Mylene caught the attention of many viewers because of Sally.
Now Mylene returns in the TV series world playing another villain. But this time, it's not as serious or as hardcore as Sally. It's light and enjoying!
Mylene is playing the character of 'Nerissa Ledesma' in the upcoming romance-comedy series "Kahit Konting Pagtingin." She will be the antagonist of Angeline Quinto who is playing the lead character of Aurora. Nerissa is the auntie of the characters of Paulo Avelino and Sam Milby. She is against Aurora and she doesn't want this poor girl for her nephews.
Here is our video conversation with Ms. Mylene Dizon revealing her character in the story:
Definitely, Nerissa will add more twist and conflicts to the love story of Angeline, Paulo, and Sam. And of course, there's something about her character that we should watch out in the succeeding episodes of the series.
"Kahit Konting Pagtingin" premieres this Monday, January 28, 2013 in ABS-CBN's leading Primetime Bida replacing the timeslot of "Aryana." I really can't wait and see how Mylene reinvented herself to another new role! Exciting! (RCB)
Sam Milby came in the videoke-comedy bar themed grand presscon of their newest teleserye "Kahit Konting Pagtingin" in a nerdy-intelligent look wearing an eyeglass. This quite depicted his character in the newest kilig-teleserye of the Kapamilya network.
Sam is playing the character of Adam Ledesma. He is the brother of Lance, the character of Paulo Avelino.
In my interview with the country's so-called "rock-coustic heartthrob," Sam described the character of Adam.
Adam belongs to a rich family owning the chain of hotels in resorts. He is workaholic, perfectionist, and striving for the best.
Because of his attitude giving more importance to work, Adam is not close with anybody. Even his own employees were not actually at ease with him!
Here is my video conversation with Sam talking about his character in the TV series
Sam even gave a glimpse to watch in the teleserye. This is about how his character will change from the usually 'terror' boss to a loving kindhearted man. And that will depend on the character of Aurora played by his new leading lady, Angeline Quinto.
Yes, in real life, Sam is actually opposite of his character in the series. He is kind, gently, friendly, and approachable! No wonder why many fans during that night want to take photos together with him. And he truly accommodated them all! He even patiently answered the simultaneous questions from the members of the press and media.
Before gracing the night's event, Sam serenaded us with his very own version of The Calling's "Wherever You Will Go," one of the songs which became a theme song of my love story way back in 2004.
This TV series is actually Sam's first project for 2013. After this romance-comedy teleserye, get ready to see Sam in a more dramatic role pairing him with the "Teleserye Queen"Judy Ann Santos for "Against All Odds."
"Kahit Konting Pagtingin" premieres this Monday, January 28, 2013 in ABS-CBN's top-rating Primetime Bida. It replaces "Aryana" which is now on its last week. Nice meeting you again Sam! Two thumbs up and more power! (RCB)
After more than two years, I created a new artwork design for the official logo poster of my phenomenal hit entertainment blog site TV Series Craze.
